Complete customization
E is the desktop that the others aspire to be, offering a level of comfort and efficiency like none other. From unique animated
login screens and desktops to the familiar keyboard and mouse bindings, E is simultaneously surprising and familiar.
More desktops than is really necessary
E supports up to 144 desktops with cross-desktop application drag-n-drop and desktop sliding for a multiplicity of desktop
power.
Responsive to change
When configuring the Application Launcher bar, changes take effect immediately--even when you just edit a file by hand.
Easy and safe desktop restart.
If something goes wrong with E17, it catches its own crash and gives the option to restart--meaning you don't lose your apps nor open
files and the system reloads just as it was. In fact, you can elect to "Restart Enlightenment" when ever you choose, just to tidy up a bit
or to validate changes made to your desktop environment.
Less power requirement. More Power.
Enlightenment E17 is less resource hungry and faster than KDE and Gnome. A great deal of effort is spent reducing the CPU resource
consumption. This is perfectly matched to the PS3 which has just 256MB RAM. |
Quickly installed, easily managed Modules
The Module extensions to E may provide something as simple as an analog or digital clock for the E Shelf,
or as profound as a spring rain across your desktop. The default Epplets include: Alarm, Battery, Clock, CPU & CPUFreq,
Deskshow (an app switching utility), Mail notification, Memory usage, Moon phases, Net and WLAN usage, desktop Pager, Rain &
Snow, Screenshot, Slideshow, Temperature, Uptime, Weather, and Window Selector.
